Brushes,generally called 'drawing brushes' ,
will be classified into twa groups.
One consists of those use for drawing pictures, and the other consists
of those used for character-writing.
For picture drawing, there are many different brushes used depending
on the purpose involved :
@Japanese painting, designing, oil-painting, dyeing, water color painting,
painting on lacquer-ware or
@earthenware and others. Character-writing brushes are to be used
only for writing.
Well, why are there so many kinds of burushes manufactured for these
various purposes?

The first reason is that it is not possible to
draw or paint with every kind of paint medium
@using only one type of brush.
For instance, a picture cannot be drawn with a character writing-brush,
because
@the character-writing brushes are too soft to draw apicture,and they
ar normally used
@by only dipping the top half of the brush's hairs, when writing with
it. On the other hand,
@drawing brushes, are touger and used by dipping entire length of
the brush's hairs into
@the paint medium when using such brushes for drawing. Hence the different
uses and requirements of
@the brushse required completely different construction of brushes
required completely
@different construction of brush hair.
However, some drawing brushes, especially those used injapanese water-color
painting,
@can also be applied in character-writing.
